USING TWO STAY TWO STRAY IN TEACHING
READING
INTRODUCTION
Reading is one of four basic skills in English. In Educational
Unit-Oriented Curriculum (Kurikulum Tingkat Satuan Pendidikan (KTSP), the
objectives of teaching reading are clearly stated. For Senior High School
students, they are expected to be able to read and comprehend: description,
narration, procedure, recount, news item, report, exposition, spoof, review and
explanation (BSNP, 2006:18).
In order to get the purposes of
reading, the method that used must match with the purpose. The method by
choosing the teacher is so definitive to success the purpose of reading, so the
student can develop their reading skill. But in fact in Senior High School,
there are many students still difficult to get high score in English reading.
This paper tries to share ideas about the
strategies using Two Stay Two Stray in Teaching Reading for Senior High School.
Therefore it covers the defintion of reading, indicators of reading, TSTS,
procedure, and conclusion .
A. Definition of Reading
According to Bernhardt et.al. (2003:6),
reading consists of two processes: word recognition and comprehension. Word
recognition is process to perceive how written symbol correspond to one’s
spoken language. Comprehension is process of making sense of word, sentences
and connected text. Readers typically make use of background knowledge,
vocabulary, grammatical knowledge, experience with text and other strategies to
help them understand written text. Grabe and Stoller (2002:4) state that
reading can be taught as a way to draw information from the text and to form an
interpretation of that information. The process of drawing information and
interpreting information requires the work of the brain actively. According to
Othman (2003:3) reading process is interaction
between text and reader’s imagination. Therefore, readers need three
aspects: making prediction, thinking of the text that it is even of life and
having similarity to the human life.
From the explaination from some resources, the writter
can conclude that reading is comprehend the text to get information. Reading
also can give us more knowledge like an idiom that “The book is the window of
world”.
